| Slowplay the standard at 25NL? I'm currently running horribly at 25NL, and I'm having a difficult time adjusting to the difference in play between 10NL and 25NL. One thing that's really thrown me for a loop is that it seems as if 75% of the players at this limit slowplay every big hand. They limp-raise AA and KK, and will complete the SB with JJ and then check to the river. And it seems like the standard is to check-raise instead of bet. Doesn't matter if it's a bluff or the nuts, players will gladly check to the river, then as you as you take a stab, they check-raise. I'm already adjusting my play, but am I just reacting to a small sample of play, or is slowplaying the "go-to" move for the vast majority of 25NL players on PokerStars? |

| I don't play ring on Stars very often, but based on these levels at other sites, I never noticed either a significant difference in the level of play or this specific tendency. Some players do like to limp-raise their big pairs, and also play hands like JJ AK AQ et al weakly, most often by limping them. But such players are easy enough to spot, and I have never felt like there were more of them at 25 than 10. |

| I wouldnt be too terribly concerned about the regs at 25nl pegging you as anything, they areny paying attention and even if they did, they would probably adjust incorrectly. You are probably just running into a lot of big hands, dont worry about it. |
